the described behaviour is not a bug but rather a feature. isLuks is meant as a test for luks device. in case you want it to output something, you can do something like # cryptsetup isLuks ... && echo "is a LUKS device"
alternatively you can use luksUUID or luksDump, which do give output in case that the device in question is a LUKS device. greetings, jonas ** Changed in: cryptsetup (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- isLuks doesn't returns boolean for a LUKS partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488704 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
